SynopsisFew religions generate the type of emotional appeal, both positive and negative, associated with the Catholic Church. The role of women, abortion, sexuality, education, and politics all have been the subject of the Church's vast influence. This important, controversial, and colorful book recounts the recent history of the American Catholic Church, from the early 19th century to its dominant position in the 1950s to its relative decline today.
